No, still not clear. When was this decision made? Was there any announcement, or discussion? Where did you find out about it?

I'm not trying to be confrontational, I just want to know the details.

See above ^^^. As for how I found out about it - I'm a photo editor, and am responsible for the oppression um... enforcement um... administration.

Also, it just came up because of a recent rash of such photos. I thought it would be best to be open about the policy and let everyone know, since *I* didn't know it existed before, so I thought y'all would want to know too.

Oh, ok. The missing piece of info was that I did not know you were a photo editor.

Like the rest of the mods and eds team, it's mostly an honorary title similar to "Vice President", "Largest Nose", or "Longest Putt."

Please pardon my igniance, but WTF is a "gumby thong" & why is this photo in the worst of thread? What's so bad about these two young ladies stick clippin' a bolt & making their way toward the heavens?

Cheesetit fixt.

There's nothing inherently wrong with two young ladies stick clippin' a bolt & making their way toward the heavens. But put them in a grainy, blurry photo at ground level with their backs to the camera... plus said gumby thong... and boom. Hello, Worst photos of RC.com.

Though, I'll bet that a lot of guys are sitting here thinking, "I wish I were that gumby thong right now."

http://www.rockclimbing.com/...he_PILOT_119294.htmlProbably wouldnt be too bad, if it werent for that weird photoshop filter. His arms look like he inseminated a cow during her period! Also why is this a png? (though that probably only adds to the badness of the photo for computer nerds…)

http://www.rockclimbing.com/...the_cube_119267.htmlThis guy doesnt need a sandwich. Apart from the fucked up ratio, i also really like the thing he has going with his chalk bag! (the shadow on the wall however is a really nice touch. Too bad that the photo is so hilarious otherwise)

Keep in mind that having a photo you uploaded to rc.com posted in this thread is both a great honor and a great shame. When you lower the bar, you water down the meaning. Although for some folks who don't approve of this thread in the first place, I guess that might be a good thing.
